If they can run 1t it will be more dependent on the motherboard. I have no idea what the X38 mobo can do. Might need to see if any one does it and ask them. But usually if 2GBs of ram run at 1t theres no reason why 8Gbs wont do it other than whether the northbridge can handle it.

its not so much the amount - its the fact that all 4 DIMM slots will be occupied. Not many MCs can do 4 DIMMS @ 1T - dunno about X38...
